Has to be 25 seconds. The penalty for not giving the advantage back when cutting the course has always been a drive through as far as I can remeber. The FIA get blasted for not being consistant enough already! |

True, they are consistent with the fact that any drive through penalty that could not be taken during the race is punishable with a 25 second time penalty. They are the rules. But that doesn't stipulate whether a penalty is actually warranted or not. |

Correct of course, but the question is which one the stewards should have imposed, given the choice. For the sake of consistency, it should have been a 25-second penalty. Whether or not a penalty should have been applied at all is another question entirely, and one that is unlikely to be resolved among fans for a very long time indeed. |
